Former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was sentenced on Wednesday to up to 175 years in prison after pleading guilty to seven counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. In December, he was sentenced to 60 years in prison on three federal child pornography charges. And later in January, he faces another sentencing for three more sexual assault charges.

Larry Nassar, 54, appears in court for a plea hearing in Lansing, Mich., on Nov. 22, 2017. Nasser, a former sports doctor accused of molesting girls while working for USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University, pleaded guilty to multiple charges of sexual assault.

But the implications of Nassar's actions, revealed through an IndyStar investigation and through the words of more than 150 of his victims, extend further than just his own fate. Exposure of the child abuse has led to major changes at USA Gymnastics and, potentially, at Michigan State University, where Nassar was a faculty member. Here's a look at all of the overarching ramifications Nassar's actions and IndyStar's investigations have had.

USA Gymnastics loses sponsorships

AT&T said in a statement that it would suspend sponsorship of USA Gymnastics "until it is re-built and we know that the athletes are in a safe environment."

U.S. Olympic Committee rolls out abuse reporting changes

The U.S. Olympic Committee announced changes to its abuse reporting policy just one month after IndyStar's investigation into USA Gymnastic's handling of abuse complaints was published. An outside agency called the U.S. Center for SafeSport is now forwarded abuse complaints from Olympic sports organizations. The agency also investigates those complaints.

Karolyi Ranch, site of Nassar abuse, in question

USA Gymnastics announced in mid-January that it had terminated its relationship with a training facility in Texas called Karolyi Ranch. Many women testified Nassar abused them there. IndyStar later learned, however, that the organization planned to use the site for its acrobatic gymnastics program's World Team Trials. When IndyStar sought comment from USA Gymnastics, it then announced that the event had been relocated.
